Design a ‘BMW RIM’ in SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial

Hello Viewers, Today we will create a model 'BMW RIM' in SolidWorks. This video will be very important for you because today I will tell you how you can easily make this model with the help of Solid Features commands like Revolved Boss/Base with thin feature option, Revolved Cut, Circular Pattern, Fillet and Combine tools. At last, I will place a BMW Logo over its small cover of the Rim under the Edit Appearance by using the Mapping option. You will also learn how to use the Spline Curve in the 2D sketching environment. At all the sure, you will definitely see this video till the end.

I hope you will like this tutorial.

Four Cylinder Engine Assembly || SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial

 

Four Cylinder Engine

 

Serial No. 250

Four Cylinder Engine Assembly || SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial

Dear Viewers, Today we will design 'Four-Cylinder Engine Assembly' in SolidWorks 2017. This Assembly tutorial covers topics from Solidworks Basics like 2-D sketching and part modeling. The model contains 6 parts like a Crankshaft, Connecting Rod, Piston, etc., and 1 Assembly. First, we create the Crankshaft then later each component is created individually with no relation to each other which you can term the Bottom-up designing process. In this process, the first parts are designed individually, and afterward, all parts are inserted into the assembly by using the assembly constraints. When the parts have been modified the changes also appear in the assembly.

Piston Assembly Designing (SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial)

Serial No. 248

Piston Assembly Designing (SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial)

Hi Viewers, Today we will design a model 'Piston' in SolidWorks 2017. In this video, you will learn the full modelling process of this model, at the end of this video It would be placed in the Connecting Rod Assembly.

This Video will cover:-

1. Create basic 2D sketches on different work planes like Front, Top and Right with the help of Line, Circle, Rectangle and 3 Point Arc tools etc.

2. Create a solid feature by using the Extrude Boss/Base, Extruded Cut, Revolve Boss/Base, Revolve Cut, Fillet, Mirror Feature and Chamfer commands.

3. Place the part in Assembly by using the Insert Components. 4. Use the 'Mate' command to position two components relative to one another by using such as Coincident Mate, Concentric mates etc.

Hope all of you enjoyed the tutorial.

Create a simple Mould Design Assembly (SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial)

Serial No. 241

Create a simple Mould Design Assembly (SolidWorks 2017 Tutorial)

Today we will create a simple Mold design assembly in SolidWorks. In this video, I will tell you that if you create a new part and merge that part into another solid part, then how will a new mold be formed? First of all, we will create two-part files, as I have shown you in the image before starting this video and then afterwards we will place them into the assembly. At the end of this video, we will merge the first part into the second part by using 'Cavity' command in the SolidWorks Assembly environment. I hope you will enjoy this video.

The Procedure of reading of Vernier Caliper in Millimetre Scale
Total number of divisions imprinted on Linear Scale = 150
Total number of divisions imprinted on Vernier Scale = 50
Pitch of Linear Scale = total length of Linear scale/total number of divisions imprinted on
                                       Linear scale
                                    = 150 mm / 150 = 1 mm
Least count of Vernier Scale = Pitch of Linear scale / Total number of divisions on Vernier Scale
                                                = 1 mm / 50 = 0.02 mm
Reading of Linear Scale = Pitch of Linear scale x Number of divisions on Linear Scale just before the
                                             zero of Vernier Scale
                                          = 1 mm x 12 = 12 mm
Reading of Vernier Scale = Least count of Vernier Scale x Number of divisions of Vernier Scale

                                           = 0.02 mm x 28 = 0.56 mm
Total Reading = Reading of Linear Scale + Reading of Vernier Scale
                         = 12 mm + 0.56 mm = 12.56 mm = 1.256 cm
__________________________________________________________________
Procedure of reading of Vernier Caliper in Inch Scale
Total number of divisions imprinted on Linear Scale  = 240
Total number of divisions imprinted on Vernier Scale = 25
Pitch of Linear Scale = total length of Linear scale/total number of divisions imprinted
                                        on Linear scale
                                     = 6 inch / 240= 0.025 inch
Least count of Vernier Scale = Pitch of Linear Scale / Total number of divisions on Vernier scale
                                                = 0.025 inch / 25 = 0.001 inch
Reading of Linear Scale = Pitch of Linear scale x Number of divisions on Linear Scale just before the
                                             zero of Vernier Scale
                                          = 0.025 inch x 45 = 1.125 inch
Reading of Vernier Scale = Least count of Vernier Scale x Number of divisions of Vernier Scale
                                              aligned with the marking of Linear Scale
                                           = 0.001 inch x 14 = 0.014 inch
Total Reading = Reading of Linear Scale + Reading of Vernier Scale
